I initially installed this package from the AUR, then noticed it had been removed, then uploaded a replacement (under the same name). I found it useful because it contains the specific version of st that's compatible with with the included patches. I recommend it not be deleted so that it can serve as a good starting point for new st users (since most at users maintain their own packages).
